A vertical groove from the upper surface hole is connected to the first groove and the second groove. After the body is inserted into the face joint hole, a compatible synthetic or biological material is inserted into the vertical groove until the material exits from the first and second holes in the side. At least one pair of flanges on a portion of the exterior side of the body serves as a detent to hold the body in place within the face joint hole.
Description
本発明は一般に最小侵襲性脊椎手術に関し、より詳しくは、予備製作、予備成形された合成皮質骨、あるいは採取され緻密質成形された腸骨隆起移植体、自家移植片または死体同種移植片のいずれかを挿入するために、関節鏡型の侵入口による、または切開による面関節癒合手術の器具構成を用いることに関する。この移植片および癒合システムは、脊椎に位置する48個の面関節、C1−C2からL5−S1に限定される。 The present invention generally relates to minimally invasive spinal surgery, and more particularly, either prefabricated, pre-formed synthetic cortical bone, or a harvested and compacted iliac prosthesis graft, autograft or cadaveric allograft. In order to insert the device, it relates to using an instrument configuration of a facet joint surgery with an arthroscopic entrance or by incision. This graft and fusion system is limited to 48 facet joints located in the spine, C1-C2 to L5-S1.
合衆国だけで、今後12カ月間に全人口の約10%が背痛を患う。今後1年間に、一般的な風邪およびインフルエンザを除いて、どの他の怪我や疾病よりも多くの人々が背痛を患うことになる。そのうちの約3分の1が回復せず、持続性の生活に支障をきたす症状を背負って生きてゆかなければならない。この数は毎年累積してゆく。 In the United States alone, about 10% of the total population will suffer from back pain in the next 12 months. Over the next year, with the exception of common colds and flu, more people will suffer from back pain than any other injury or illness. About one third of them will not recover, and will have to live with symptoms that hinder sustained life. This number is cumulative every year.
背痛、特に持続性の生活に支障をきたす種類の根本的原因の1つは面関節、つまり脊椎の隣接し合う椎骨の後ろに位置する、背骨の動きを可能にする小さな関節である。 One type of root cause of back pain, particularly persistent life, is a facet joint, a small joint that allows movement of the spine located behind the adjacent vertebrae of the spine.
面関節の機能障害を有する何百万人もの人々に利用できる現在の外科的解決法は、複雑で侵襲的な椎弓根スクリューに基づくリスクの大きな手術であり、6から24カ月の長い回復時間と、不確定な結果を伴う。リスクが大きなことから訴訟が頻発し、そのことによって非外科的な対症療法が強要されると同時に疾病または損傷の結果が徐々に悪化する。そのような取り組みの中には、米国特許第6485518号および米国特許出願第2003/0032960号に記載の椎骨間癒合を提供するものがある。近似法または設計による面関節を含み、または含まない場合がある脊椎の全般的な癒合に対して、多数の特許がこれまでに許可されている。 The current surgical solution available to millions of people with facet dysfunction is a high-risk operation based on a complex and invasive pedicle screw with a long recovery time of 6 to 24 months With uncertain results. Due to the high risk, litigation is frequent, which forces non-surgical symptomatic treatment and at the same time worsens the consequences of the disease or injury. Some such efforts provide intervertebral fusion as described in US Pat. No. 6,485,518 and US Patent Application 2003/0032960. Numerous patents have been granted to date for general fusion of the spine, which may or may not include facet joints by approximation or design.
新たな、より安全でより低侵襲性の外科的技法および技術が現れたことによって、脊椎手術の進歩は今や他のあらゆる整形外科分野を凌いでいる。その進歩は莫大な需要によってさらに増幅される。 With the emergence of new, safer and less invasive surgical techniques and techniques, advances in spinal surgery now outperform all other orthopedic fields. The progress is further amplified by the huge demand.
予備成形された採取骨または合成骨を面関節癒合術で構造的固定化として使用することは、面関節癒合処置で現在使用されている椎弓根スクリューまたは圧縮スクリューに対して3つの明確な優位性を有する。即ち、(1)金属ではなく骨を使用することは、骨の自然な内部成長と、より堅固で恒久的な癒合とを可能にし、(2)天然または合成の移植片が、スクリュータイプの固定化法で懸念事項である時間経過による緩みを起こすことはあり得ない。
この移植片およびシステムは、特に、単独式処置用の最小侵襲性の侵入口または関節鏡型の侵入口で使用するように設計されており、器具を用いた椎骨癒合術での付属品として使用されるとき、持続的な面関節の動きから生じる面関節の痛みのリスクを大幅に縮小することによって、より堅固で、独自の優れた癒合術を提供する。 This implant and system is specifically designed for use with minimally invasive or arthroscopic entry points for stand-alone procedures and is used as an accessory in instrumented vertebral fusion When done, it provides a more robust and unique superior healing technique by greatly reducing the risk of face joint pain resulting from sustained face joint movement.
表面再建術または置換術に適していない罹患した面関節または有痛性の面関節の治療で用いる最小侵襲性面関節癒合術は、最小限侵襲性外来患者向け関節鏡視下脊椎手術または従来の切開手術で用いるために、より具体的にはC1−C2からL5−S1までの脊椎面関節を癒合するために、器具構成と、自家移植片、死体同種移植片、または食品医薬品局承認の予備製作、予備成形された合成皮質骨移植片とを使用することを含む。このシステムは初回手術または修正手術としての役割を果たす。 Minimally invasive facet joints used in the treatment of affected or painful facet joints not suitable for surface reconstruction or replacement are arthroscopic spinal surgery or conventional Instrument configuration and autograft, cadaver allograft, or Food and Drug Administration approved reserve for use in open surgery, and more specifically for fusion of C1-C2 to L5-S1 spinal joints Making and using pre-formed synthetic cortical bone grafts. This system serves as a primary or corrective operation.
本発明は、C1−C2からL5−S1までの脊椎面関節に対する関節鏡侵入口によるまたは切開による手術技法を使用する癒合を容易にするために移植術の代替手段を提供することによって、脊椎面関節の優れた癒合を達成する。 The present invention provides an alternative to transplantation to facilitate fusion using an arthroscopic entry or incision surgical technique for C1-C2 to L5-S1 vertebral joints. Achieve superior joint healing.
本発明の広範な一態様によれば、この関節鏡視下面関節癒合システムは、面関節の両方の側を通って円錐型に穴を開けるパンチまたはドリルを備える。この穴は、患者自身の採取骨プラグ、あるいは腸骨隆起自家移植片、予備製作、予備成形された皮質死体同種移植片(自家移植片または同種移植片は骨プラグのプレスまたは加工によって形成される)、または食品医薬品局承認の予備製作、予備成形された合成移植片を使用した緻密質成形骨プラグのいずれかによって充填される。 According to one broad aspect of the present invention, the arthroscopic lower surface joint fusion system comprises a punch or drill that drills in a conical shape through both sides of the facet joint. This hole is formed by the patient's own harvested bone plug, or iliac protuberance autograft, prefabricated, pre-formed cortical cadaver allograft (autograft or allograft is formed by pressing or processing the bone plug ) Or pre-fabricated by the Food and Drug Administration, densely formed bone plugs using pre-formed synthetic implants.
このパンチまたはドリルは、関節にアクセスするための関節鏡用侵入口または類似の侵入口を使用して、あるいは従来式の切開手術で脊椎面間関節の両方の側を通る穴開けを実施することが可能な任意の数の構成要素を含む。単に一例として述べると、このパンチ/ドリルは、一般的なプライヤと類似の、関節鏡用開口部から作業するように寸法変更された機械構成物を使用して、特定寸法の穴を脊椎面関節の両側にまたがって開けるのに充分な圧力を作り出す手動アクチュエータを含む。さらに、ドリルガイドを配置することができ、特定寸法および形状のドリルヘッドを使用して、面関節に水平方向または垂直方向のいずれかに開口部を作り出すことができる。 This punch or drill uses an arthroscopic entry or similar entry to access the joint, or drills through both sides of the intervertebral facet joint in conventional open surgery Including any number of possible components. By way of example only, this punch / drill uses a mechanical component resized to work from an arthroscopic opening, similar to a typical plier, to drill a hole of a specific size. A manual actuator that creates enough pressure to open across both sides of the. In addition, a drill guide can be placed and a drill head of a specific size and shape can be used to create an opening in the facet joint either horizontally or vertically.
骨プラグのプレス機(移植片形成または圧縮器具)は、パンチまたはドリルで作られた骨のトンネルと一致させるための、採取された自家移植片の皮質骨、死体同種移植片の皮質骨、または合成代替物を使用することが可能な任意の数の構成要素を含む。単に一例として述べると、骨プラグのプレス機には、一般的なプライヤと類似の機構、またはより標準的な手動プレス機が含まれ、それらは取手を一緒に絞ることによって骨プラグを形成するのに充分な力を伝えて、骨プラグを形成し、骨または合成代替物を適切な密度および形状に圧縮する。 Bone plug press (graft forming or compression device) is used to correlate punched or drilled bone tunnels, cortical bone from harvested autografts, cortical bone from cadaver allografts, or It includes any number of components that can use synthetic substitutes. By way of example only, bone plug presses include mechanisms similar to common pliers, or more standard manual presses, which form bone plugs by squeezing the handles together. Sufficient force to form a bone plug and compress the bone or synthetic substitute to the appropriate density and shape.
衝撃子またはタンプは、骨プラグを骨のトンネルの中に押し込み、圧縮することが可能な任意の数の構成要素を含む。移植片の合体中、関節に追加の構造的安定をもたらすために、縫合または金属重層を加えることもできる。 The impactor or tamp includes any number of components that can push the bone plug into the bone tunnel and compress it. Sutures or metal overlays can be added to provide additional structural stability to the joint during graft coalescence.

関節が、現在の置換方法、または面関節の半関節成形術などの候補的方法を行うのに損傷または罹患がひど過ぎると判定される場合、最小侵襲性面関節癒合術は、3つの主な理由によって優れた代替方法であると見込まれる。
(1)病院で実施される大手術に対して、外来で実施することのできるのは最小侵襲性手術である。この処置法は、医師の判断により特に器具を用いた椎骨癒合術と併せて面関節を癒合する必要がある場合、切開手術でも実施することができる。
(2)回復時間は、6カ月から12カ月とは対照的に数週間であると推定される。
(3)生物材料および合成代替物の進歩を充分に利用できる。
If the joint is determined to be too damaged or affected to perform current replacement methods or candidate methods such as facet joint arthroplasty, minimally invasive facet arthroplasty involves three main It is expected to be an excellent alternative for some reason.
(1) In contrast to major surgery performed in hospitals, minimally invasive surgery can be performed in an outpatient setting. This treatment method can also be performed by open surgery when it is necessary to unite the facet joint in conjunction with vertebral fusion using instruments, as determined by the physician.
(2) The recovery time is estimated to be several weeks as opposed to 6 to 12 months.
(3) The progress of biological materials and synthetic substitutes can be fully utilized.

・ 新たな技法を使用して、また骨を成形・製作するための独特の器具構成と組み合わせた既存の皮質骨採取処置法、あるいは食品医薬品局の承認によって一般に利用可能となっている予備成形、予備製作された新たな合成皮質骨代替物のいずれかの利点を活かして、一般に認められた関節鏡視下処置法を利用することによって高い成功率を見込む。
The present invention addresses overcoming, or at least improving, the disadvantages of the prior art by accomplishing the following:
• Reversing the cost / benefit ratio of current treatments for the present invention.
• Minimally invasive treatment for large open surgery • Outpatient surgery for hospitalization (approximately 20 minutes for several hours per joint). Note: This procedure can also be performed in open surgery at the discretion of the surgeon.
• Can be used to augment current incision healing techniques to reduce the need for bone stimulation, especially in high-risk groups such as smokers and multi-level cases.
・ Decrease in complication rate.
・ Reduce blood loss.
・ Reduction of anesthesia time.
・ Risk reduction.
• Dramatic reduction in recovery time.
• Minimal scarring that reduces the risk of dysfunctional back syndrome and improves the outcome of corrective surgery.
• Reduce the risk of post-operative infection by significantly reducing operating room time and soft tissue destruction.
• Do not rule out other surgical or non-invasive treatment options.
Existing cortical bone harvesting procedures using new techniques and in combination with a unique instrument configuration for shaping and producing bone, or pre-forms that are generally available with the approval of the Food and Drug Administration, Taking advantage of any of the pre-fabricated new synthetic cortical bone substitutes, we expect a high success rate by utilizing generally accepted arthroscopic procedures.
このシステムと移植片代替物とを利用できることによって、手術の実施件数が劇的に増加することが予想されるが、これはそれらが脊椎関節の痛みの主要原因に対して最初の安全な外来手術による解決策を提供するからである。この処置を受ける実質的に全ての患者は同日に歩き出ることが可能であり、2〜3週間のうちに機能が完全になることが予想される。現在の外科的解決法では、約3日の入院と6カ月から24カ月の回復期間とが必要である。 The availability of this system and graft replacement is expected to dramatically increase the number of operations performed, which is the first safe outpatient procedure for major causes of spinal pain. This is because it provides a solution. Virtually all patients undergoing this treatment can walk on the same day and are expected to be fully functional in a few weeks. Current surgical solutions require approximately 3 days of hospitalization and a recovery period of 6 to 24 months.
明らかに好ましい臨床結果とは別に、傷病、被雇用者補償、および医療に対する保険業者への有意義な有利な財務的影響は大きい。 Apart from the clearly favorable clinical outcomes, there is a significant beneficial financial impact on insurers for sickness, employee compensation and health care.
脊椎小関節面インプラントユニットは1つの関節ごとに計算される。患者はそれぞれ、1つの脊椎セグメントについて2つの関節を、合計で48の面関節に対して24のセグメント、即ちC1−C2からL5−S1を有する。1回の手術が複数の関節を含む場合が多い。 The spinal facet implant unit is calculated for each joint. Each patient has two joints for one spinal segment, 24 segments for a total of 48 face joints, ie C1-C2 to L5-S1. In many cases, one operation includes a plurality of joints.
本発明は従来技術の欠点を克服し、または少なくとも改善することに取り組むものである。 The present invention addresses overcoming, or at least improving, the disadvantages of the prior art.
プラグ10を挿入する際、小さな切開部からの関節へのアクセスと、干渉する軟組織の漸進的拡張とを可能にする関節鏡型侵入口から、テーパ付ドリルが特に使用される。この器具の設計によって、従来式切開手術での使用、あるいは他の形の限定された切開部から面関節へのアクセスによる使用が不可能になることはない。開口部28は、プラグ10と関節の適切な固定化を作り出すように、骨プラグ10よりも僅かに小さい。
When inserting the
図1および8を再度参照すると、1つの成形された自家移植片、死体同種移植片、または食料医薬品局承認による予備製作、予備成形された合成皮質骨プラグを備えた、癒合された面関節プラグ10、10a、または10bを示している。プラグ10または10aの前方端部22または22aの直径は3mm〜8mm、プラグ10、10a、または10bの後方端部24または24aの直径は4mm〜12mmであり、後方部分に幅の広い部分が位置する錐台形状となって、骨移植片の合体で固定化をし易くする。この処置法は、1つの面関節について1つの骨プラグ、1つのレベルについて2つの骨プラグしか必要ないように想定されている。時間経過によって骨の内部成長が関節自体の中、プラグの中へと生じるときに、恒久的な固定化が起こる。
